Description

County Cork, Ireland, as seen through the eyes of sixty-seven visitors. Brendan Behan, Charles Dickens, William Penn, John Wesley, William Wordsworth, Queen Victoria - just a few of the people who have visited County Cork over the centuries. This anthology brings together their travel accounts along with those of other fascinating visitors: Constance Markievicz writes from Cork Gaol; the Duke of Wellington inspects coastal defenses; a Lusitania survivor is rescued to Cobh. Covering over six hundred years of travel writing, The Grand Tour of Cork takes the reader back in time through the highways and byways of the county. Illustrated with old photographs, antique maps and illustrations.

Cornelius Kelly is also the author of The Grand Tour of Beara, The Grand Tour of Galway, and The Grand Tour of Kerry.
